    adulthood
  • Sexual assault in adulthood was associated with
    substance misuse rape with anxiety, depression,

  • Abuse/neglect doubled risk of having antisocial
    personality disorder
  • Cycle of violence

7
Personality disorder (PD)
  • An enduring pattern of inner experience and
    behaviour that deviates markedly from the
    individuals culture, is pervasive and
    inflexible.
  • Affecting thoughts, emotions, interpersonal
    functioning, impulse control

  • social care

12
People with personality disorder

  • 70000 men 49000
  • 4000 women 2000
  • Population
  • 59m
  • 1.8m diagnosable with PD

16
Personality disorder
  • Antisocial PD and probably Borderline PD becoming
    more common in USA (Robins 1991, Millon 1993)
  • Higher rates of parental separation (Paris 1994)
  • Loss of secure attachments -gt affective
    instability
  • General risks for all PD
  • parental psychopathology
  • family breakdown
  • traumatic events

17
Aetiology ASPD
  • antisocial behaviour in parent -gt ASPD in child
    independent of other risk factors
  • capricious and violent parenting, physical abuse
    (Pollock 1990)
  • coercive child training, failure to monitor
    child's behaviour (Patterson 1982,1986)
  • large family, low IQ (Farringdon 1988)

18
ASPD
  • institutional care and early parental loss
  • parental discord and hostility parent - child -gt
    conduct disorder

19
The effects of neglect and abuse (Johnson 1999)
  • prospective study
  • PDs increased in children grossly neglected or
    abused
  • physical or sexual
  • all personality disorders but particularly
    borderline PD

20
Borderline personality disorder (BPD)
  • Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined
    abandonment
  • Pattern of unstable and intense relationships
    alternating between idealisation and devaluation

    controlling anger

    severe dissociative symptoms

21
Is BPD caused by childhood abuse?
  • 50-70 CSA in BPD
  • BUT also associated with other PDs
  • 30 severe CSA trauma, 30 less severe CSA, 30
    none
  • independent assoc. CSA-BPD (Paris 1994, Links
    1993)

22
  • Overprotective parenting -gt anxious children
    (Kagan 1994)
  • Dependent PD report intrusive parenting (Head
    1991)

23
  • Those of us with personality disorder can
    elicit a negative response and a kind of
    aloofness from professionals and carers, probably
    because we are a mass of churning emotions and,
    unintentionally, this is threatening to others,
    or stirs up their own deep-seated emotions.

Definitions of abuseDepartment of Health.
Working together to safeguard children a guide
to inter-agency working to safeguard and promote
the welfare of children. Norwich TSO, 1999 5-6.
  • Child abuse and neglect
  • serious physical and sexual assaults
  • standard of care does not adequately support the
    childs health or development.
  • through the direct infliction of harm
  • through the failure to prevent harm occurring.
  • Emotional, physical, sexual abuse and neglect

34
Physical abuse
  • Physical abuse may involve hitting, shaking,
    throwing, poisoning, burning or scalding,
    drowning, suffocating, or otherwise causing
    physical harm to a child. Physical harm may also
    be caused when a parent or carer feigns the
    symptoms of, or deliberately causes ill health to
    a child whom they are looking after. This
    situation is commonly described using terms such
    as factitious illness by proxy or Munchausen
    syndrome by proxy.

35
Emotional abuse
  • Emotional abuse is the persistent emotional
    ill-treatment of a child such as to cause severe
    and persistent adverse effects on the childs
    emotional development. It may involve conveying
    to children that they are worthless or unloved,
    inadequate or valued only in so far as they meet
    the needs of another person. It may feature age
    or developmentally inappropriate expectations
    being imposed on children. It may involve causing
    children frequently to feel frightened or in
    danger, or the exploitation or corruption of
    children. Some level of emotional abuse is
    involved in all types of ill-treatment of a
    child, though it may occur alone.

36
Sexual abuse
  • Sexual abuse involves forcing or enticing a child
    or young person to take part in sexual
    activities, whether or not the child is aware of
    what is happening. The activities may involve
    physical contact, including penetrative or
    non-penetrative acts. They may include
    non-contact activities, such as involving
    children in looking at, or in the production of,
    pornographic material or watching sexual
    activities, or encouraging children to behave in
    sexually inappropriate ways.

37
Neglect
  • Neglect is the persistent failure to meet a
    childs basic physical or psychological needs,
    likely to result in the serious impairment of the
    childs health or development. It may involve a
    parent or carer failing to provide adequate food,
    shelter and clothing, failing to protect a child
    from physical harm or danger, or the failure to
    ensure access to appropriate medical care or
    treatment. It may also include neglect of, or
    unresponsiveness to, a childs basic emotional
    needs.
